Polymer Post Insulator 

Composite post insulator consists of a fiberglass core, top and bottom flanges, and HTV silicone rubber housing. Line post insulators are used for horizontal and vertical assembly in high-voltage and medium-voltage power lines. 


  


  1. Polymer insulators characters:

  • Shed connected with the core by integral forming

  • Metal end fittings, core, and sheds connected by new crimping process

  • The thickness of housing > 3mm, uniform thickness, confirm to IEC Standard

  • Acid-resistant, high-temperature-resistant an epoxy fiberglass core

  • The material of metal end fittings is used with hot galvanization and technology of rare earth aluminum coating to avoid coating shedding when crimping, prolonging the service life of the product.

2. Post insulators structure

  • Core rod

    The core rod of the insulator is made of a high-quality, epoxy resin, Fiberglass rod that has been specially formulated for electrical and mechanical applications.

  • Housing

    The housing (includes sheath and sheds)of the insulator is one-piece, high-temperature vulcanized, injection molded silicone rubber that is chemically bonded to the core rod. This ensures that the interface between the rubber and rod is impenetrable against moisture ingress. Tronco uses its own proprietary silicone rubber formula in the manufacture of its insulators. the formulations have silicone rubber as the base polymer material with additives to enhance its performance in wet contaminated environments.

  • End Fitting

    Station post insulator, both of the end fittings are flanges.
